I've seen this case on other channels a couple before but you took it to a whole other level. I know more about the man himself, his family, his thought processes & his crimes now. Your sense of humor is just fine. 😁
Thank you, Kay! I like going the extra mile with my research. It’s better to fully understand a killer when you know where they have come from and the events that led up to that point. I used to work the probation service and I dealt specifically with personality disorders which is fascinating topic of study. Really helps you get inside the mind of a killer/criminal. The extra level of psych analysis is a nice sweetener to add to the pot. 👍🏻😁
When I was a teenager my mother told me of a woman she met at a needlework class in London who had bought the former house of Dennis Nielson, 23 Cranley Gardens, London. The woman was very distraught as she learned of the atrocities that had taken place there only after the purchase of the property. I remember feeling very sorry for her, this all I know.
You did a great job telling this story! I love how matter of fact you were! A refreshing change from the “makeup and true crime” gossip style videos that are so popular now.
Yeah, I don’t mind “hamming it up” when I do different voices/accents but the more matter of fact one is about these cases, the more detail you can fit in by keep to the point. Plus, it really adds to sicker parts, such when Nilsen masturbated himself between the thighs of one of his victims, there’s just no other way you can present that and still be taken seriously. My friend Rob who has been major encouragement in me starting this channel said to me he thought that was definitely the sickest moment and kind of made him gag a bit! And he’s no stranger to dark topics, like myself.
hah! Good to know I'm not alone: it's now 2:59am and I need to get up early for a big, busy day tomorrow...but I just can't sleep. I'm hoping beyond hope that DoD's amazingly soothing voice to hopefully help me drift off... Edit: it's now 3:31am, I'm still awake, and just realized I spelled it "DoD" rather than the correct "DiD."
I have been studying serial killers since adolesense. I was fascinated by them at a young age. I was never particularly interested in the macabre, or in their particular individual crimes. I found the psychological aspect of it to be particularly fascinating. As I studied more and more of them, I noticed that nearly all of them shared a certain commonality. They all had some type of childhood trauma, or a traumatic upbringing in general. Their crimes often tend to reflect their own individual trauma in some way. I think that the key to prevention is for every person to pay attention to what is going on around them. If it is apparent that a child is growing up in an abusive or extremely abnormal environment, then early intervention is key. Nearly all of the killers I have studied showed clear signs of disturbance long before they began killing. The mind is truly a powerful thing.
According to other sources, it is not proved that his grandpa did abuse him. Military service, which Nilsen also took on, also distorts personalities, and a perfect place for abuse. Sadly, I know sexually abused people, but thanks God, they have not become serial killers, (though one of them started abusing children too). It seems to me that this guy was mentally instable anyhow, had a weird personality, a bit autistic, cannot connect to even men, and is only interested in himself, everything needs to be in the way how he imagines it (it's in the film starts from about 11:04)
OMG, the similarity to Dahmers first killing was very chilling! Dahmer had done a similar thing and had the same urge when he was worried his friend would leave him. Crazy, Maybe there is something to this odd behaviour.
I just said the same thing and noticed you beat me too it. We must have both watched his Dahmer video earlier. In juxtaposition they are very near identical.
Well told and very interesting, 👍 as a combat veteran I can tell you there is no animal as cruel and mean or compassionate and loving as a human being. 🤨
I am repeatedly impressed with your films. Excellent work all around & I look forward to more. Also people who work in/with sewers are underpaid & just cut from different cloth than most people. There's no way I could do that job & I spend time cleaning medical wastes.
Yeah, I wouldn’t fancy it much either. Don’t really relish cleaning my own crap, never mind anyone else’s! 😂😂😂 Thank you for the praise, it really is humbling seeing all this outpouring of great feedback! 👍🏻😇
Your voice is so good for these types of readings. Would love to hear you do an audiobook for Killing For Company, The Dennis Nilsen Tapes or even his autobiography History Of A Drowning Boy. I see that you have done an audio reading on Jeffrey Dahmer, which I'm going to check out right now! You've just earned a new subscriber!
@@DiD86 I've just finished watching your Jeffrey Dahmer video. I was very surprised that you used those graphic images..... I'm very surprised that RUclips has kept the video on the platform as long as they have. And regarding audiobooks, I don't think a copyright will be labelled on an audiobook video. A cover of the book and an audiobook reading I don't think will give your channel a copyright warning. It's entirely up to you but that's my reason for it. 👍
That sort of thing is allowed but with an age restriction. That’s how I “get away” with having the video remain up. There are plenty of other videos that show murder victims, including my video on Jack the Ripper, which is many ways is FAR worse than Dahmer.
Dennis Nielsen was arrested on my 19th birthday. Later that same year (1983), I found myself unexpectedly hitchhiking through Belgium to Germany. I was provided accommodation overnight by a mature Belgian man, when I was reminded of the homosexual serial killer earlier in the year, which then led to me 'barricading myself in' for the night! Fortunately the night passed without incident, and I carried on my journey the next morning. I have never forgotten this somewhat worrying night, which is now 39 years ago. It would seem my Belgian host was quite genuine and kind, thank goodness! Thank you for this excellent download, you narrate brilliantly by the way.
@@DiD86 thank you for your kind message. I'm glad also, and here I am now, fast approaching my 59th birthday! Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I will definitely be watching your downloads from now on, they are excellent! 😉 Best wishes, Tim ☺
All the Murders are tragic but for some reason I find the totally unknown victims especially sad, going by his known victim selection they would have been young gay guys so ostracised and outcast no-one even knew they where missing.
I don’t really. I grew up with parents that were really good at accents, particularly my dad. We would often have conversations in a random accent for literally no reason 😂 I’d LOVE to get into proper voice acting but I’ve no idea where to start.
@@DiD86 Probably sign up with an agency that represents voice over or narration actors. You are really talented. Your voice is perfect for audio books or TV and radio adverts.
Imnstruck by how similar Neilson was to Dahmer. Both have the same paraphelia, both had distantbor absent fathers, both were alcoholics in the military, both were necropheliacks as well as their more common but still distressing paraphelias. Until now i didnt realize how similar they were.
Another good one! I feel Dennis was more mad/sad than bad. Luv the loo blockage story. Had I known Dennis (the surface Dennis) I could have liked him enough to invite him around for dinner with a few friends. Feel sorrow more than anger towards him - another goodie!!!
This shit just gets better and better mate! I’m really trying to go back through all your videos bit by bit! Being 60 years old I find it really stimulating to stir up the feelings to want to fix these criminal dogs with a helpful solution to try and ease their self esteem issues! I love your work, and appreciate your time and effort sharing the stories ❤😊
Thank you very much. My content does appear to resonate more with the older demographics, that’s what the stats are saying, anyway. To be fair, I prefer their company to my own age range! Lol Rest assured there will be more and more coming
@@DiD86 Hahaha so what age range are you talking about? I can assure you that you are definitely stirring up a lot of old time memories of past days that need to be well buried!

Having listened to alot of your video I must say you are very adept at accents.. I am scottish myself .....not only did you nail the accent but it actually sounded like nelson. Very well done ....I suspect you'd have made a great actor
Sickening. From such light and beauty of a child to utter darkness and evil of this man. Human nature never ceases to surprise me and demonstrate how wide and even diverse this gap is for real.
Good Lord, shades of Dahmer. As everyone else has already said, you gave a lot of notice to the victims of Dennis. It’s amazing the kind of people that exist or existed. Thank you for the in-depth report. DiD, as usual, you’ve done another very interesting and disturbing video.
Nilsen: the toilet in my cell is clogged……😂😂😂. DiD, you are excused from your warped sense of humor! Made me laugh as well! What does that make me??? 😅😊
I saw Nielsen , just the once . After my RN service I joined the Met (served 32years) as a young traffic PC I had an arrest in North London , maybe Muswell hill I’m not sure now . In the cell block a cell door was open with a PC sitting outside , looking in I asked “ What’s that about? “ That’s Dennis Nielsen , came the reply .As you say , softly softly treatment .
The cooker and cooking pot used by Nilsen are still in existence to this day. I have also been informed, by what I consider to be a reliable source who is familiar with this case, that Nilsen also cooked a chicken curry in that very pot for a social event. I won't enter into detail other than to say, it was definitely chicken in the curry.
PLEASE TELL ME Nilsen did NOT benefit financially from the royalties on sales of his books. In many US states, the law prohibits convicted felons from benefitting financially from publishing either autobiographical or biographical accounts of their crimes.
No, I don’t believe he did. Pretty sure we have the same rule in the UK as well. Even if he did, there’s no way he could’ve enjoyed the earnings, anyway! He was never getting out and they will only ever let you load so much money onto your canteen.
Admittedly, I am less well-read on Nilsen than Dahmer, but one thing that has always struck me about Nilsen is his veracity. Or perhaps lack thereof…. Of course both monsters only came clean after they were discovered, but I’m not sure I believe everything Nilsen said regarding his personal experiences in childhood. And any statement he made that couldn’t be verified by independent sources I would seriously question. Just my gut feeling. I have zero doubt about Dahmer’s “come to Jesus,” or in his authentic willingness to reveal past details in order to shed light on this deviancy. I’m not so sure about Nilsen in that regard. As always, thanks for educating me with a great presentation.
I really don't get it. When one of my cats brings a dead mouse inside without me noticing and the mouse starts to rot, the smell is so bad and instantly noticeable, that I can't do anything but search for the corpse immediately and until I find it. Even after disposal the stench lingers for quite some time. And that's a tiny mouse. How can people like him or Dahmer or Gacy have a number of human corpses in, around or under the house and neighbours not be totally alarmed after a couple of days????
Is true that you feel the most peaceful feeling ever while drowning. I spent 6 minutes underwater on an upside-down fliped car in a river. Is painful af for like the first 2,3 minutes, but then you feel completely relaxed and at ease. The closest feeling to that, is like when you're dreaming, but you know you are dreaming in a strange way
I remember this one well. I went to the poll tax March (riot) in 89/90? And had nowhere to stay in London. A kindly Irish guy approached us and let us stay the night. All I could think though is I hope this guy isn’t another dennis nilson
There were a couple of us and I recently asked them about it on FB. I was like “ weren’t we crazy”. They thought that I had known him because I’m Irish also. I’m like “nope”😂
I suppose after a while, his brain kind of tuned it out. 🤷🏻♂️ I’ve been told by those in the know that the smell of death, once experienced, is never forgotten….
Victims who were molested when they were children turn on mental health issues and are destroyed for ever because their memories . They made mistakes that send them to jail but the nasty child molesters are free . Child molesters deserve electric chair or torture . I have seen the anxiety on children who were molested and the child molester hiding from justice because the child molester was a woman and nobody believed a woman was capable of being molesting her own children.
@@DiD86 . The people who make mental health damage don’t go to jail . I mean : the child molesters destroys lives and they don’t pay . Electric chair to every child molester would be justice . But nobody care about victims of sex abuse .
His purported abduction in Aden was almost certainly made up, as he also asserted that the taxi driver molested him thinking Nilsen was dead or knocked out, it was very obviously one of his fantasies - and indeed I believe much of the material that he wrote or the material by other authors based on his self-report is just as unreliable, he tended to insert his fantasies into his life events when recounting his life. For this reason I would not reccommend that anyone read History of a Drowning Boy, his autobiography - apart from the fact that it is quite disturbing and lurid in places much of it is in my opinion fantasy and there is literally nothing to be learned from it: as his biographer Brian Masters stated, Nilsen's writings shouldn't be sought after "because it's *him*, he can't step outside of himself and see himself as a killer". Masters' book is amazing on the other hand. I don't agree with his conclusions about the origins of Nilsen's pathology but it's a seriously amazing book.
I have the same sense of humour as you and don’t worry I’m not hitting on you. I’ve worked in an undertakers and crematorium so you can imagine what my sense of humour is like
Intriguingly, early on in Freud’s career--when he was still working with the fascinating and quite therapeutically useful and descriptively accurate “hydraulic model of psychic functioning,” he points out that *if the ego-which constantly tries to emulate an internalised image of what a socially valorised version of the self called the “ego-ideal” would be--if the ego, that is, ever forms an alliance with the archaic, pre-moral, repressed desires for *any* type of erotogenic satisfaction or pleasure--the unconscious--rather than with the ego-ideal or “conscience,” THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS, OFTEN PATHOLOGICAL, PARANOID, and VIOLENT SPLIT IN THE MIND.* In other words, it makes a person such as Nilsen a paranoid schizophrenic. At this point, nearly *all* the subject’s libidinal energy or “connective life-force” is twisted and contorted away from having the socially valorised ego-ideal as its object, and is “inverted”: it begins to be directed (impossibly) toward the pre-social, pre-natal primordial past, toward the largely imaginary “utopia” of the amniotic state, wherein the SOLE concern the (pre)subject has to consider is **his OWN pleasure, his OWN gratification, and there are no pesky “Others” to get in the way. Freud calls this pathological, imaginary, pre-social and prenatal phantasy state on which the ego and temporally inverted libido of the psychically disturbed subject have become fixated the “ideal-ego.” Because the split psyche of the paranoid schizophrenic has pathologically contorted and inverted most of the subject’s libido (which *should* be a force of CONNECTION and LIFE) such that it is now oriented toward a psychic “blind spot” (the prenatal period inside the amniotic sac) to which return is in fact impossible and during and in such a time-place when and where the “subject” such as we know it DID NOT EVEN EXIST, any subject whose ego aligns itself with the unconscious rather than the socially valorised ego-ideal and strives to turn back the clock and restore the amniotic, prenatal state of the ideal-ego instead IS ACTUALLY STRIVING TO REACH A TIME-PLACE WHERE/WHEN IT DID NOT EXIST: it is striving for DEATH, striving to either be dead itself or to be in love with a Dead Other with whom it identifies…. We cannot say, thus, that paranoid schizophrenics such as Nilsen have a “libido” or “life-force;” they have only Death drive, pure Thanatos.
Once again what is the first thing that jumps out at you about this case? Thats easy. Police incompetence. This guy could have been stopped way before so many victims were killed.
It’s easy to say that but to be fair, it’s not natural to assume that EVERYONE is a killer or up to no good. That way, everyone would be in jail awaiting trial. 😂
@@DiD86 With all due respect i understand your reluctance to admit to the fact that the cops messed up. But how many times was this guy reported to the cops? And what about the Asian dude who a witness saw running from the killer's place? Kmt.
@@DiD86 I really love your content and the fact you go into such depth ,my daughter's has a friend who rented his flat he didn't know till he'd moved in about it's history, apparently it was very creepy,I couldn't live there 💗
It. is also disgusting that people profit from his heinous murders by writing books and gloryfying this murderer!!!! If such are written the proceeds should be shared amongst the victims families!
I completely understand what you mean, but I am a bit biased against it, as I do have a horse in that race. 😅 Totally agree that they shouldn’t be glorified for what they’ve done, though. That’s a big point I try to make in all my videos. 😇
Ahem I think Dahmer was the American Nilsen not to claim any territory here for such heinous people but after all The original Serial Killer was probably a Brit too wasn’t he boss 😊 🇬🇧
Born & bred in Muswell Hill I took it as a given right that I should have Dennis's Myspace page back in the day. My other pages for Shipman & Freddie West lasted about 6 months before being culled by the mods (they'd become slightly too popular and their heads were above the parapet), but nobody ever compained about Des's page. It's probably still there - but then Des was always onnocuous...

Have you killed yet? You will eventually.
What does it say about yourself, having a lifelong obsession with serial killers?
I also have studied for years. Not only is all what u said true but more times than not there was some extreme religious upbringing of sorts.

The cooker and cooking pot used by Nilsen are still in existence to this day. I have also been informed, by what I consider to be a reliable source who is familiar with this case, that Nilsen also cooked a chicken curry in that very pot for a social event. I won't enter into detail other than to say, it was definitely chicken in the curry.
Dang!
PLEASE TELL ME Nilsen did NOT benefit financially from the royalties on sales of his books. In many US states, the law prohibits convicted felons from benefitting financially from publishing either autobiographical or biographical accounts of their crimes.
No, I don’t believe he did.
Pretty sure we have the same rule in the UK as well.
Even if he did, there’s no way he could’ve enjoyed the earnings, anyway! He was never getting out and they will only ever let you load so much money onto your canteen.
Admittedly, I am less well-read on Nilsen than Dahmer, but one thing that has always struck me about Nilsen is his veracity. Or perhaps lack thereof…. Of course both monsters only came clean after they were discovered, but I’m not sure I believe everything Nilsen said regarding his personal experiences in childhood. And any statement he made that couldn’t be verified by independent sources I would seriously question. Just my gut feeling. I have zero doubt about Dahmer’s “come to Jesus,” or in his authentic willingness to reveal past details in order to shed light on this deviancy. I’m not so sure about Nilsen in that regard. As always, thanks for educating me with a great presentation.
I'm going to burn in hell for laughing, as well.
I really don't get it. When one of my cats brings a dead mouse inside without me noticing and the mouse starts to rot, the smell is so bad and instantly noticeable, that I can't do anything but search for the corpse immediately and until I find it. Even after disposal the stench lingers for quite some time. And that's a tiny mouse. How can people like him or Dahmer or Gacy have a number of human corpses in, around or under the house and neighbours not be totally alarmed after a couple of days????
I guess the saw it as merely an occupational hazard.
So he blocks the drain with human flesh, then calls dynorod to complain its blocked?, dropped himself right in it there...
Yeah, but if a self-own, wasn’t it? 😏
Is true that you feel the most peaceful feeling ever while drowning. I spent 6 minutes underwater on an upside-down fliped car in a river. Is painful af for like the first 2,3 minutes, but then you feel completely relaxed and at ease. The closest feeling to that, is like when you're dreaming, but you know you are dreaming in a strange way
Wow! That is interesting. Thank you for sharing. Glad to hear you’re still with us, of course.
Yeah mate sure you did 🤣
I remember this one well. I went to the poll tax March (riot) in 89/90? And had nowhere to stay in London. A kindly Irish guy approached us and let us stay the night. All I could think though is I hope this guy isn’t another dennis nilson
Ran a bit of a risk, there! 😅
@@DiD86 I totally did but tbf I was very drunk
There were a couple of us and I recently asked them about it on FB. I was like “ weren’t we crazy”. They thought that I had known him because I’m Irish also. I’m like “nope”😂
I'm coming to hell with you, I'm just glad I didn't have a mouthful of coffee when you said he had blocked his cell toilet 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I know! When my mate told me, I was on the deck from laughing so much!
How did Nilsen endure the smell. RIP to the victims. This is so awful, they all are. Thank you DID!
I suppose after a while, his brain kind of tuned it out. 🤷🏻♂️
I’ve been told by those in the know that the smell of death, once experienced, is never forgotten….
Malcolm Barlow looks scarily similar to Malcolm in Malcolm in the Middle :,O
Victims who were molested when they were children turn on mental health issues and are destroyed for ever because their memories . They made mistakes that send them to jail but the nasty child molesters are free . Child molesters deserve electric chair or torture . I have seen the anxiety on children who were molested and the child molester hiding from justice because the child molester was a woman and nobody believed a woman was capable of being molesting her own children.
Can't argue with any of that! Church!
@@DiD86 . The people who make mental health damage don’t go to jail . I mean : the child molesters destroys lives and they don’t pay . Electric chair to every child molester would be justice . But nobody care about victims of sex abuse .
I would love to see you do an episode on Ed Gein!
He is most DEFINITELY on the list.
Dark humour is always welcome, laughter is the best way to keep your mind from losing itself.
Holy crap!! Never heard of this guy but damn did he have SERIOUS issues!! 😲
any info on the headphones? i want a pair! solid contruction!
I know I shouldn’t laugh….
Berechurch hall camp is in my hometown Colchester 6:45
His purported abduction in Aden was almost certainly made up, as he also asserted that the taxi driver molested him thinking Nilsen was dead or knocked out, it was very obviously one of his fantasies - and indeed I believe much of the material that he wrote or the material by other authors based on his self-report is just as unreliable, he tended to insert his fantasies into his life events when recounting his life. For this reason I would not reccommend that anyone read History of a Drowning Boy, his autobiography - apart from the fact that it is quite disturbing and lurid in places much of it is in my opinion fantasy and there is literally nothing to be learned from it: as his biographer Brian Masters stated, Nilsen's writings shouldn't be sought after "because it's *him*, he can't step outside of himself and see himself as a killer". Masters' book is amazing on the other hand. I don't agree with his conclusions about the origins of Nilsen's pathology but it's a seriously amazing book.
I think his autobiography should be seen as an insight into his mind, rather than an actual documentation of events.
I am laughing my head off but I have a very sick sense of humour as well.
Yeah.... The families of the victims are laughing too???
That prison story made me laugh my head off, I’m going to hell lads. But I’ll definitely keep it in mind if this topic ever comes up lol
He looks like Steven Hawkings!! 😂
I have the same sense of humour as you and don’t worry I’m not hitting on you. I’ve worked in an undertakers and crematorium so you can imagine what my sense of humour is like
Oooof! That’s one job I couldn’t do! But at least it’s a job that never goes away…
Intriguingly, early on in Freud’s career--when he was still working with the fascinating and quite therapeutically useful and descriptively accurate “hydraulic model of psychic functioning,” he points out that *if the ego-which constantly tries to emulate an internalised image of what a socially valorised version of the self called the “ego-ideal” would be--if the ego, that is, ever forms an alliance with the archaic, pre-moral, repressed desires for *any* type of erotogenic satisfaction or pleasure--the unconscious--rather than with the ego-ideal or “conscience,” THIS CREATES A DANGEROUS, OFTEN PATHOLOGICAL, PARANOID, and VIOLENT SPLIT IN THE MIND.* In other words, it makes a person such as Nilsen a paranoid schizophrenic. At this point, nearly *all* the subject’s libidinal energy or “connective life-force” is twisted and contorted away from having the socially valorised ego-ideal as its object, and is “inverted”: it begins to be directed (impossibly) toward the pre-social, pre-natal primordial past, toward the largely imaginary “utopia” of the amniotic state, wherein the SOLE concern the (pre)subject has to consider is **his OWN pleasure, his OWN gratification, and there are no pesky “Others” to get in the way. Freud calls this pathological, imaginary, pre-social and prenatal phantasy state on which the ego and temporally inverted libido of the psychically disturbed subject have become fixated the “ideal-ego.”
Because the split psyche of the paranoid schizophrenic has pathologically contorted and inverted most of the subject’s libido (which *should* be a force of CONNECTION and LIFE) such that it is now oriented toward a psychic “blind spot” (the prenatal period inside the amniotic sac) to which return is in fact impossible and during and in such a time-place when and where the “subject” such as we know it DID NOT EVEN EXIST, any subject whose ego aligns itself with the unconscious rather than the socially valorised ego-ideal and strives to turn back the clock and restore the amniotic, prenatal state of the ideal-ego instead IS ACTUALLY STRIVING TO REACH A TIME-PLACE WHERE/WHEN IT DID NOT EXIST: it is striving for DEATH, striving to either be dead itself or to be in love with a Dead Other with whom it identifies….
We cannot say, thus, that paranoid schizophrenics such as Nilsen have a “libido” or “life-force;” they have only Death drive, pure Thanatos.
So, let's get this right.He killed people so they would hang around him for a while! Not realising he had no friends coz he was so BORING 🤔
Stranger things have happened.
Damn. This guy is one sick cookie.
Resist the devil he will flee. But give in and you will be consumed
RIP innocent lads
Des sounds like Britains answer to Jeffery Dahmer. It's fascinating in a morbid way
Many have called him just that.
Just that he pre-ceded Dahmer by many years. So not really an "answer", which is a weird word to use
@@Dilley_G45 not if you're doing it in the present. Which many, of course are...
“asians lay eggs” ~ dennis nilsen
Peacefully drowning in water? Not if the Loch Ness Monster is in it. 😮
😂😂
Once again what is the first thing that jumps out at you about this case? Thats easy. Police incompetence. This guy could have been stopped way before so many victims were killed.
It’s easy to say that but to be fair, it’s not natural to assume that EVERYONE is a killer or up to no good. That way, everyone would be in jail awaiting trial. 😂
@@DiD86 With all due respect i understand your reluctance to admit to the fact that the cops messed up. But how many times was this guy reported to the cops? And what about the Asian dude who a witness saw running from the killer's place? Kmt.
I think this had more to do with his sick and twisted predilections than his struggle with his homosexuality.
Yes, completely.
Good old English Police ineptitude!!too much paperwork perhaps????cannot be bothered!!
Wouldn’t surprise me…
Is this cookies mate who cut his throat ?
I feel very sorry for this poor man.
Another comment, Nilsen complaining about the time it took to flush the remains down the toilet is pure psychotic logic.
Yeah, you’re not kidding! 😏
There really are remarkable traits that they both share however dahmer was far worse in his depravity
How could that scrawny dweeb manage to overcome younger & fitter guys?
Because they were mostly drunk and asleep. Got the drop on them, I guess
I like the old British laws.
whose Des??
Desnutz
Take a wild guess
Do you mean who's Des or who is Des? Listen and learn.
It’s a shortening of the name Dennis.
Nilsen’s friends regularly called him Des.
@@sandragrundy1516 ssssshhhhhh
A gay man called Nobbs? 😂😂 comedy gold
I wonder what happened to his dog ?
I would like to think she was rehomed BUT…..😔
@@DiD86 I really love your content and the fact you go into such depth ,my daughter's has a friend who rented his flat he didn't know till he'd moved in about it's history, apparently it was very creepy,I couldn't live there 💗
Oh my days! That would creep me right out.
It. is also disgusting that people profit from his heinous murders by writing books and gloryfying this murderer!!!! If such are written the proceeds should be shared amongst the victims families!
I completely understand what you mean, but I am a bit biased against it, as I do have a horse in that race. 😅
Totally agree that they shouldn’t be glorified for what they’ve done, though. That’s a big point I try to make in all my videos. 😇
The 8th of February is my birthday.
I'm sorry I can only subscribe once to this channel.
As am I! 😂😂
I would love you forever if you could share as far and wide as possible though. Get a real party started up in here! 👍🏻😇
@@DiD86 Well, my goodness! That's a helluva offer- what girl doesn't want to be loved forever, after all? 😂
I'll do my best? 😉☺️
@@maneckineckbeard1749 HA! There you go, then. It's a deal! LOL!
Great channel my mate was in jail with Steven Wright the sullfolk strangler said he's nice bloke funny old world
Ahem I think Dahmer was the American Nilsen not to claim any territory here for such heinous people but after all The original Serial Killer was probably a Brit too wasn’t he boss 😊 🇬🇧
Bit of useless information...I went to school with the son of the copper that arrested Nielsen
I think the use of the name "Des" was a little too familiar.
Well to be fair it's how he was referred to. Mr Bundy is rarely referred to as Theodore.
murder I can forgive, but joining the police... pffffft
😂😂😂 that’s given me the giggles!
Cheers for that!
your not going to hell . why . there is no hell or heaven . or god . or satan ,peace out
Omg this is awful sounds similar to Jeffrey Damher
Very similar
Born & bred in Muswell Hill I took it as a given right that I should have Dennis's Myspace page back in the day. My other pages for Shipman & Freddie West lasted about 6 months before being culled by the mods (they'd become slightly too popular and their heads were above the parapet), but nobody ever compained about Des's page. It's probably still there - but then Des was always onnocuous...
Have to wonder. How he just went day to day as normal with 6 dead bodies in his flat.
Yeah! It’s literally crazy. The thought of it creeps me the F out!
The clowns from the alphabet mafia commit the worse crimes
